A ★★½ review of Frightmare (1981)

I feel like there is so much that can be done with the concept but it was unfortunately plagued by budgetary constraints that held it back from being so much better. The cast was all decent mostly, especially a young pre-Reanimator Jeffrey Combs. I couldn't help thinking these are the types of people I need in my life as friends. This one would be ripe for a solid remake that could go all the way with the concept and ideas therein.

According to the openSUSE team the people were made perfectly aware of what they were circumventing; it was put in plain English.

What was not put in plain English is that because of the circumvention they were putting themselves in tremendous risk.

Consider taking two kg of Aurum four kg of Argentum jewelry putting them on your body and then just walking on the street wearing only those jewels, in a street where there are only ladrónes. You're just begging for trouble

For me reading this post took about 10 minutes since I not only read but I also processed and checked references and I tooted about it immediately

It is quite sobering to read something this horrific happening in an Open Source project of this magnitude of volume

This is something you would expect in closed source not open source; it's like a shower with 0° degrees Celsius of water flowing over you 0° in the depth of the coldest Siberian winter

Removal of Deepin Desktop from openSUSE due to Packaging Policy Violation

At the beginning of this year we noticed that the Deepin Desktop as it is currently packaged in openSUSE relies on a packaging policy violation to bypass SUSE security team review restrictions. With a long history of code reviews for Deepin components dating back to 2017, this marks a turning point for us that leads to the removal of the Deepin Desktop from openSUSE for the time being.

This is where the depth of the deception became clear

The review of this component was also what led us to the discovery of the deepin-feature-enable whitelisting bypass, since we installed the full Deepin desktop environment for the first time in a long time, which triggered the “license agreement” dialog described above. After finding out about this, we decided that it was time to reassess the overall topic of Deepin in openSUSE based on our long-standing experiences.
